I've been having problems with the shifting on my tranny (2-3 flare, 3-4 flare, and downshifting to passing gear flare) so I datalogged some of the tranny sensors along with the engine RPMs and vehicle speed. I'm still pouring over the data, and so far I found that during a downshift to passing gear, the tranny commands 4th, and instead shifts to 3rd (which spikes the tach to 6 and pisses off the driver) and I'm still looking for the 2-3 flares to see what's going on with that.



I can post the data file here, for anyone to see, but you'll need SCT LiveUpdate (free) from sctflash.com. If anyone wants it, or wants me to check any other sensors, let me know!
 
Larry,



I wounder if you have a broken valve body gasket..... And the fluid is crossing over the veins and causing the tranny to operate weird..
